NOTE:
* = inexpensive options
SECONDHAND STORES:
These are the best places to find skirts!
My favorite is Savers / Value Village – even though I am plus size, I found most of my clothing there!
REGULAR STORES?
Being plus size, I find it really difficult to find clothing that actually fit, or doesn’t look like a potato sack. My little sister, who is a size 4, also has trouble finding clothes that she wouldn’t have to add to, to make it modest.
The stores we usually shop at are:
JCPenny, Ocean State Job Lot,
So here are a few tips that we both use,when shopping at regular stores:
- Too short?
This is usually what happens to my sister: everything may FIT, but when she tries it on its way too short.
HALF SLIPS / SKIRT LENGTHENERS!
You can either find one you can use at a secondhand store, or you can buy one of these:
- THE ORIGINAL DAINTY JEWELL’S LAYERING SLIP
- Bring on the Frill Half Slip
- Slip Extender
- Floral Lace Skirt Extender
- Lace Hem Extender
- Women’s Double Layered Satin Skirt Extender / Half Slip Lingerie
- Knee Length Underskirt
- Pinterest and Amazon also have numerous results !
